[h1]Introduction[/h1] Adam Waste has proven to be a weird experience so far. Certainly not a waste of my time, since that would have been a lame pun, right? In anycase, it’s a rare example of a game being hindered by a seemingly insignificant aspect which gets on players’ nerves eventually. How could a title with a promising storyline, setting and protagonist still disappoint me? Two words: camera controls. I’ll go much further into detail below. For now, allow me to acknowledge that Adam Waste is a decent offering from its developer, considering that Blackturn Ltd. also released Runeyana and Grey Phobia on Steam. Those two were more than just rough around the edges, to put it mildly. What my reviews aim for when it comes to a dev team that’s had some experience already, is to look for any signs of improvement in their development process and even creative thinking. Third time was fortunate enough for Blackturn. [h1]Story[/h1] The game wishes to introduce the storyline in an episodic format so that the titular hero shall have a proper narrative arc. Adam Waste even at a superficial glance, seems like a tale of redemption and perpetual regret. The world as we know it has ended. Devastating wars were followed by famine on a global scale and the few survivors which are left in the smoldering ruins of their once thriving cities, are either cannibals, mutated beyond recognition or in hiding. Adam was part of the task force which desperately tried to maintain order until the end. Haunted by the effects of anarchy and the subsequent collapse of civilization, he attempted to avoid commiting further war crimes, yet his insubordination only led to his imprisonment by cryogenic means. Waking up from frozen state years after apocalypse ensued, he must now find some meaning to his existence and perhaps on that path, solace shall also be obtained. Be aware that there are still many plot holes that require more episodes before the story shall shape up decently. [h1]Graphics[/h1] While not specified and simply judging by its settings menu, I’d say that Adam Waste has been created with the help of the Unity Engine. Performance-wise, I had no issues by running the game maxed out and on 4K resolution. Yet the absence of frame rate dips, crashes or game breaking bugs could not excuse the abysmal camera interface which follows the protagonist in a 3rd person perspective, yet it moves erratically while the mouse peripheral must constantly adjust it. I’ve never seen this problem in a similar video game until now and I still am a fan of custom angles, since the fixed method is a relic to modern gaming. I still remember what a huge difference it was between San Andreas and Vice City, in terms of view angles and it really did offer more freedom to the players who could change the camera’s perspective at will. In Adam Waste’s case, they should have stuck to a fixed camera rather than let it wobble chaotically for no apparent reason. I could compare it to GTA IV’s “drunk mode”. As annoying as ever. [h1]Audio[/h1] The music really compensated for the broken English in both the voice acting and the subtitles. It was a mix of techno with epic and it created an eclectic soundtrack which convinced me to judge the audio department, less harshly than I first intended. The sound effects didn’t draw attention in any manner. I reckon that desolate ruins don’t really offer much sound diversity anyway. [h1]Gameplay[/h1] I am certain that Adam Waste manages to stay afloat in spite of its considerable flaws, especially since it doesn’t stick to a single genre. It mixes its gameplay mechanics with stealth sections, followed by frantic shooting and the occasional puzzle solving that slows both the pace and sense of progression when you’d least expect it. If this title would have just stuck to “pew-pew” and survival horror moments, you’d be forgiven for thinking that you’re playing a Dead Space 3 clone. Yes, the least popular iteration from an otherwise solid series. But why am I even bringing Dead Space into discussion? Adam’s cybernetic suit stikes an almost uncanny resemblance to Isaac Clarke’s signature, engineer exoskeleton. No plasma cutter this time around, yet Adam is still dispatching foes with efficiency. But you’ll still be running away from threats more often than facing them head-on. It takes some time getting used to the monsters’ hypersensitive hearing, but I am never one to complain about a difficult instance of sneaking around. Come to think of it, most video games are unrealistically portraying stealth segments precisely because it would imply far too much trial & error otherwise. Practice makes perfect and once you’ll pass those instances, you’ll be prepared to face whatever the games throws at you aftewards. Combat is mostly used in the flashback prewar sequences and stealth is primarily represented in the grim present in-game times. Outsmarting mutants is obviously more fun that shooting everything that moves. [h1]Verdict[/h1] I'm really curious what can another episode bring new to the table. It has to adapt afterall and the urban setting should be mixed with other environments. The chromatic choice, almost like an oversaturated Instagram filter, needs to make room for a better color palette as well. Basically, the dev team just has to focus on even more diversity to go with Adam Waste's already flexible gameplay. The Achievements revolve around and encourage the search for easter eggs. That is a nice bonus which could only be improved by the future inclusion of Trading Cards, hopefully. [h1]Strong Points[/h1] + Pleasant graphics. + Interesting storyline. + Steam Achievements. [h1]Weak Points[/h1] - Typos and narrative inconsistencies. - Dreadfully glitchy camera controls. - No Steam Trading Cards.

[h1]«Adam Waste»[/h1] Научно-фантастический приключенческий экшен от третьего лица. Мрачная история о постапокалиптическом будущем с разрухой, мутантами и голодающими людьми, вынужденными прибегнуть к каннибализму… Геймплей: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9XGsyAaGSxI Игра получилась атмосферная и мрачная. Прохождение линейное, но геймплей очень разнообразный. Главному герою придется убегать от монстров, решать небольшие головоломки, стрелять, плавать, искать проходы, переключать рычаги и открывать двери. Геймплей держит в напряжении. Присутствуют моменты с резкими звуками, взрывами и грохотом. Игра изобилует кровавыми сценами, расчлененными трупами и монстрами. Понравился захватывающий фантастический сюжет. По мере прохождения вам потихоньку открывают картину происходящего кошмара. Многих порадует, что игра полностью на русском языке с русской озвучкой! На данный момент в игре один эпизод и анонс второго. Будет ли второй эпизод добавлен в игру бесплатно или это будет платное дополнение, я затрудняюсь ответить. Время покажет. В любом случае игра интересная и достойна внимания. [u] Вы можете почитать другие отзывы и подписаться на наших кураторов. Добро пожаловать!

Please FIX THIS GAME! I really want to play this one, it seem so great,but there are so many bugs that make this game unplayable. What about Full screen mode? What about option to select resolution that actualy work? What about walk model that doesn't stuck at every step. What about progress save that don't stop you from moving? What about better FOV settings and actualy seen what Im pressing that E key is too small to see ingame. Anyway I wait on Woovit to be able to get this. I'm glad I did.
Reviewed this game on my youtube channel a while back and tore it apart for it's multitude of issues, anyone interested for seeing the problems can do so here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kj2ZXebO_7o But I was scrolling through my library and realized I never submitted a review here on Steam, so here it is: I absolutely would not recommend this game. Not only did I encounter many issues during my brief time playing it (0.4 hours as you can see, and only 4 minutes of that was salvageable for footage), but after I released my video I received a sudden outpouring of negative feedback on my channel. I received multiple hateful comments and messages from the person who handled the Woovit page, and for weeks after that video was uploaded I received immediate dislikes after uploading each and every video, some of them accompanied with further messages by the same person until I finally blocked them. I can excuse bugs or incomplete content. I can even understand, accept, and excuse being upset over negative reviews - I know that it hurts to put time into something and for other people to not see it in the same light you do. But I cannot condone nor excuse the way this developer has conducted themselves following my negative review. I hope that in the future they conduct themselves in a more professional fashion.
Приключение с фантастическим сюжетом. Далекое и безрадостное будущее. Играем за заключенного Адама Вайста, которому удается избежать наказания и вырваться на свободу. Кто он, за что был осужден, что происходит в мире будущего, вы узнаете пройдя игру. Это приключение с элементами хоррора. В сюжете присутствует тема про людоедов, поэтому не удивляйтесь, что в игре увидите много крови, мяса и жестокости. В игре отличная графика, качественный звук и русская озвучка. Особенно хорошо выглядят экшен-сцены с падающими вагонами, разрушениями и взрывами. Отличный фантастический хоррор-экшен про мир будущего! Пока это только первый эпизод, но он довольно длинный и разнообразный.
Gawsh this game is bad. The gfx are uninspired, and lack in contrast; the sounds are just a few sfx samples mashed together with bad bg music sometimes, the controls suck, the story seems uninspired (though I didn't get very far before I was turned off too badly)... This is a perfect example of how NOT to make a game. Don't buy. Don't take it even if it was free.
The game in it's current form is not good. It has so many downsides : no music adjustments, bad aim controls, bugged face animations, touch polygons to press E to activae stuff, Immortal mutants and generic story elements. It's kinda like doing a lot of things bad (shoot, sneak, beat'em, "puzzle", story) instead of a single thing good.
Key revogada pela produtora, não deu nem mesmo tempo de fazer um vídeo. Mas não compensa muito pelo preço. Alguns bugs e problemas gráficos.
Хороший проект, который, видимо, умер - игра должна выходить эпизодами, но далее первого не продвинулась, а все новости и обсуждения остались в 2018 году. Авторы явно вдохновились Dead Space - и уровни, и стилистика, и костюм главного героя Адама, - всё передает любовь создателей к этой серии игры. Сюжетная завязка проста: Адам просыпается в криокапсуле-тюрьме и, выбравшись из неё, оказывается на какой-то станции, где ему начинает мерещиться всякая чертовщина. Периодически у героя случаются флешбеки, и нам дают немного окунуться в прошлую жизнь персонажа - относительно недалекое будущее, когда у человечества заканчивается еда и оно вынуждено перейти к канибализму. Геймплей - похож на дэдспейсовский, с небольшим количеством легких головоломок, простым стелсом и не очень удобным взаимодействием окружающим миром. Отдельно стоит отметить озвучку на южно-русском - без особых претензий к качеству игры актеров озвучания инди-проекта, сам говор очень харАктерный и складывается впечатление, что действие игры (по крайней мере флешбеки) разворачиваются где-то между Ростовом-на-Дону и Мариуполем. К сожалению, я не встретил НИ ОДНОЙ сцены или локации, где не было бы багов. Их очень много и, порой, они критичны - не срабатывают скрипты и приходится загружаться с предыдущей точки сохранения. Тем не менее советую ознакомиться с игрой - разработчики действительно молодцы и видно, что старались, но что-то пошло не так и оставили проект. Поэтому брать - берите, но не за 289 рублей.
the game is as ♥♥♥♥ as the discord server i found it on
